Can we put the litter in a bathtub? - Page 2

Thanks for all your help. We might consider a Litter Robot as well but not yet sure which one is better.

The toilet training sounds like a fantastic option. Does it work? Have others on the forum got it working?

We will let you know how we get on with the Cat Genie of Litter Robot if we do purchase them.

We have also decided against the Ragdoll and now we will go for two Siberians.

Out of interest, if you never intend to use the bath, why not removed the bath and replace it with whatever tray you go for? the Cat Genie requires plumbing into your toilet waste pipe so in the bath could be tricky.

Hi there,

If you visit our website you will be able to find the dimensions of the CatGenie to see where you can fit it.

CatGenie - The World's Only Self-Flushing, Self Washing Cat Box

I have my own unit running in my small bathroom in a 2 bed flat and have plumbed the pipework under the bath panel. We have some images of customer installations at our Facebook fanpage CatGenie UK | Facebook which may be of use.

CatGenie can be plumbed in very quickly by using the self cutting tap into the 15mm pipe in to the toilet cistern and then hooking the waste pipe over the side of the toilet. You then have a 90 day money back guarantee period to ensure you and your cats like CatGenie before investing in some plumbing work if you want to make it more of a custom installation.

Happy to answer any other questions you may have.

We are thinking of getting two cats, a Siberian and a Ragdoll. We will be buying them from breeders as soon as we find breeders that can deliver both at about the same time. These will be our first ever pets.

We live in a one bedroom apartment and we are slightly worried about space. So much so in fact we are wondering where to put the cat litter. We would really like to buy this CatGenie - The World's Only Self-Flushing, Self Washing Cat Box as it is self cleaning so no mess (hopefully). Can anyone recommend it?

One problem though, the only place we seem to have space for it is in the bathtub. It is a normal sized bathtub. Has anyone every placed cat litter in a bathtub before? Will the cats be able to reach it when they are younger or older? We will probably be getting the kittens at 12 weeks or more.

Many thanks for your help.

All of my foster cats hate the bathtub so they'd never use a tray in there. This is the problem with cats - if you spend a lot of money on something they are nearly 100% guaranteed never to use it.

I'd stick to a regular old covered litter tray.
